An HInyaluable Prote ction."

Mr.. L, Dautell, Of Cleveland, an engin-
eer whose German education makes him
thorough in everything appertaining to
engineering, is of the opinion that the sur
face of our brick pavements should be kept
covered either with sand or some other
substance to prevent abrasion, for he says
when the surface Of the brick is worn out
the rest of it will go very rapidly. He
thinks the coal tar and sand covering used
in Wheeling an invaluable protection to
the brick. -SteubenriHe Gazette.

THE SENATOR

stepped from the wareroom into the fac
tory proper, where the roar from the hun
dred and fifty machines struck his ears, he
knitted his brows and his face assumed an
expression of curiosity, as if he feared
that he was about to be ushered into the
presence of his royal nibs-the evil one.
But he soon became accustomed to it, and
the screechiDg tones in which the
employees address each other 80 they
may be heard above the din
became music to his ears. Every greasy
hand that was presented was heartily
squeezed, and those not presented were
sought for. A complete tour OF the
plant was made, and for the first time the
Senator was given glimpse of the place
repudiated by Ingersoll, when he was al
lowed to look into heating furnace heated
to 1000 degrees. When the old gentle
man left the Laughlin mill his hand was
as black and greasy as that of any en-
ployee, and he only needed bis overalls,
blouse and hand feathers to pass off for an
employee in any department, from
sender monkey to mailer. He spoke
to those about him concerning
the vastness of the establishment and
the increasing availability of natural gas
He seemed very much impressed with the
cordial reception accorded HIM by Repub-
licans and Democrats alike in the estab-
lishment, and was profuse in his thanks to
the management for the kindness and con-
sideration displayed in their efforts to
make his visit conducive to agreeable
results.
The party was next driven to the Elson
Glass Works, where Manager Elson met
them and conducted them through the
plant. The first place visited was the
Office, then the packing room, etching and
cutting shops, and factory proper, where
Mr.. Sherman seemed to be deeply inter
ested in what he saw. The dextrous
motions Of the workmen, swinging and
blowing the melted material, and pressing
it into unique shapes seemed to teach the
city's guest that brains

men who, by politicians, are usually sup
posed to only strike and vote. From the
factory he was taken through the mould
shops and to the sample rooms, where be
was very much pleased with the elegant
samples Of tableware, lamps and art goods
displayed. One set Of opalescent polka.
dot ware seemed to take his eye, and he
inquired Of Manager Elson the price OF it.
Mr.. Elson appeared inclined TO give the
Senator a set OF the ware as testimonial,
but the prospective candidate for national
honors declined to receive it unless he was
allowed to pay for it. At length 1t was
arranged for the company to send to Mr..
Sherman, at his home at Mansfield, a box
Of ware, including q set Of the opalescent
and several odd pieces, and it was also
sgeed that he should be allowed TO pay
the freight and that a bill for the full
price should accompany the purchase.
From here the committee and their guest
were driven to the Benwood blast furnace,
where handshaking was the order. From

The Hero of Specie Payment Makes Tour Through

Senator John Sherman, the hero OF
specie payments and the candidate in en-
bryo for the Presidency of the United
States, saw more machinery yesterday than.
ever before in the same length Of time. 1t
wasn't all political machinery either, and
if the hum of busy wheels, and the rush OF
hundreds of honest-faced laborers, with
begrimed countenances, can inspire the
human heart to an appreciation OF how one
half of the world tolls to furnish luxuries
and necessities for the other, and that this
valley represents fair share of the bone
and sinew of the country, John sherman's
heart must be full of it.
Senators are not common occurrences
over in Belmont county, and the tall, erect
form of Senator Sherman and his pleasant
face attracted attention everywhere he
went. After his speech in St Gainesville
on Wednesday night he went to Beilaire,
and at seven o'clock yesterday morning

covers ten acres, and represents more CAPT

Pipes in the Street.

The fashion of smoking pipes in the
street is coming in again, said Fulton
street tobacconist to a reporter Haven't
you noticed it?" On the reporter reply
ing in the affirmative, the speaker con-
tinued:
LESS than five years ago the dudes
conceived the idea of smoking fancy
pipes on the steps of the. Academy Of
Music on opera nights. They were
compelled by public opinion, however,
to desist. Within month | have sold
a dozen meerschaum pipes 10 gentlemen
who said they intended to smoke them
in the street. don't see why a pipe,
comparatively new, isn't as good a
thing to smoke in the street as a cigar
OF course. no gentleman will smoke o
pipe or even a cigar while in the street
walking with lady. The pipe has
until recently been considered as be-
longing exclusively to the house or
office. Many of my customers prefer a
pipe to a cigar, for this reason, that in
4 pipe they know the quality OF the to-
bacco they are smoking. while in a
cigar they don't. Pipes are now manu-
featured expressly for street smoking.
They are in many instances richly
carved and have large round bowls and
sell at from 81 to $50 each. A meer-
schaum has to become pretty old before
the odor gets to be unpleasant. Oh!
yes, some pipes must admit arc just
little ancient, but then their smokers
become accustomed to them and think
others do likewise. -Brooklyn Eagle.

THE FRYING PAN.

The Detroit Tribune says: There
are properly but two methods of fry
ing; one by which the object to be
fried is immersed in smoking hot
fat, and the second by which the
object is fried by contact with the
metal of the frying-pan, just enough
fat being used to prevent sticking.
Food properly fried is delicious and
not greasy. When fried food tastes
greasy it is because the grease was
not properly heated, or because there
was not enough of it.
When fat is hot enough to fry
with, it is at a temperature between
345 degrees F. and 400 F., and
closes the pores and carbOnizes the
exterior of the object so that no fat
is absorbed. The directions here
with are for frying by the first pro-
cess:
Use a pan large enough so that
the fat, lard or oil will immerse the
article to be fried If you use the
wire basket made for lifting articles
out of fat without piercing them
with a fork, it is necessary to set the
basket into the fat before it is heat
ed. If you set the cold basket con-
tanning cold food into the heated fat
there will be a spluttering sufficient
to throw the food over the stove; the
fat will also soon be cooled below the
frying point. Fried articles should
be laid for an instant on warm blot
ting paper when they arc taken from
